For what its worth I do love some of the new designs, but the old rugged feel of D1 is also something that made me fall in love with Destiny in the first place. Perhaps it has to do with the way metal looks in D2 vs. the old way of it rendering.

I'd love a comeback of the old style to mix in with the new style. A good mix of both would be awesome! Warmind already seems to be drawing a lot on the Rise of Iron gear so you might already be ahead of the game there

That's great to hear! Thank you for taking the time to read the post and respond to let us know a little about what's going on regarding this.Very happy to hear it's already on the table for discussion.

I know this may be redundant, but I think people just want variety. I like my titans bulky, hunters to have arms that don't resemble wet noodles, and have beautiful, flowing capes (burn the ninja shoes- personal opinion). Warlocks should have a bit more armor bulk than the current iteration, but still retain the "mystic" look, something like the cleric robes in "Equilibrium." Again, these are just me, personally.

Speaking of.. is there any chance we could look at pauldrons/shoulder sets being tied to gloves again? It ties in with this discussion in a roundabout way, exposing more materials for us to play around with.

It makes for more interesting options, because it makes arms much less interchangeable. I'm thinking specifically of the unornamented Days of Iron warlock set.

The DOI warlock armour in D1 let me have those cool upwards pointing paudrons as well as gauntlets, pairing it with e.g. the Y2 the FWC coat. This let all my armour pieces be really distinctive.

The arm slot makes a big difference to all outfits in D1 for this reason, but very little in D2 because they basically only change forearms.

In D2, not many sets have pauldrons for warlocks (D1 concept art does), and if they did I'd be stuck to the chest of that set, which is already a lot of real estate.

It's something that hasn't been addressed much, but I think this is an important part to character customisation.

Thanks for acknowledging this. I hope with the Comet DLC, you can give us a few more choices. I kind of liked the colorful and clean sets in D2 when it was new, but I'm starting to get sick of it now. I'm also not a fan of the large shoulders and ninja toes, and like OP said, it does seem a lot of the armors uses that as a base.

I want to look like a worn-out, post apocalyptic space hero. This is the first time I saw the D1 armor concept arts, and those look so much better. Please go with that direction again.

From what I have seen of warmind, looks like they are making steps in the right direction. The camo armor set on that hunter, looks amazing, the camo sniper rifle looked epic, along with that escalation protocol shotty.

Also, and I know I listened to a video where a player said it was discussed at the Summit, but if you really ever want me to spend money on Eververse, you actually have to make the armor look good. The current offerings are so bad that I sometimes wonder who said "Yeah, people will definitely want to spend money on this."

Hey Chris, could front sight posts please make a return for the guns that have basic iron sights? It's purpose is to line up with the rear sight to make sure the gun is level and the bullet is going to where you're aiming. I know it kind of gets handwaved since its future tech/red dot sight, but the front end of our guns tend to look empty because of the lack of a front sight. I feel that it throws off the aesthetics of some of the guns, especially Hakke weapons since their design ethos is 21st century, tactical looking weapons.

It bothered me when the sight posts were being left out around the end of D1, but it wasn't as much of an issue since there was such variety with gun sights. Sometimes I like using the stock iron sights instead of the others, because there's just something about that "basic" look of a weapon that I just enjoy. But I can't really get that same feeling in D2.

Can we get the return of some old favorites at least? Like have vendors that have pulled corrupted data from the old vault, make us go on a quest for items they need to repair the data, then allow them to sell old school armor
